Heard it on Countdown earlier.
Howard Fineman- Well, I think it's interesting symbolism, Muhammed Ali who's a world wide figure of respect, and who knows McCain, and who never takes part in politics, very, very, very rarely- I think he's only ever been to one convention, has decided, that he called and said to the Obama staff, I want to come to this convention because it's going to be a historic night on on that night on Ivesco Field where you give your acceptance speech in front of 70k people, on the night of Martin Luther King's anniversary, I want to be there. So that will be a measure of sort of the global nature and the historic nature of what Obama will be doing on that night.
